The Puget Sound Partnership is a community effort of citizens, governments, tribes, scientists and businesses working together to restore and protect Puget Sound.
Our goal is to make Puget Sound healthy again, and create a roadmap for how to get it done. If we work together, we can have both a thriving Puget Sound economy and a clean and healthy Puget Sound ecosystem.

Watching Our Water Ways blog, Christopher Dunagan
While Kitsap County officials gear up to rewrite the county’s Shoreline Management Master Program, they have been handed a hot potato they cannot ignore.
As I describe in a story in today’s Kitsap Sun, the Washington State Court of Appeals has thrown out the county’s shoreline buffers written into law when the county commissioners updated the Critical Areas Ordinance.
Property-rights advocates feel vindicated, and rightfully so. They have spent their own money — more than $100,000 — to fight a county they feel should be standing up for their rights. (See Karl Duff’s column from Feb. 25.) Meanwhile, the county uses public money to fight them back. Victory is sweet for the winners, but it comes at a price.

Kitsap Sun
OLYMPIA — Shoreline buffers spelled out in a 2005 update to Kitsap County’s Critical Areas Ordinance have been overturned by the Washington State Court of Appeals.
The lawsuit was brought against Kitsap County by the Kitsap Alliance of Property Owners along with two Kitsap residents, William Palmer and Ron Ross.
In its ruling, handed down Wednesday, the court acknowledged the tortured interplay between the Growth Management Act and the Shorelines Management Act. Even the state Supreme Court has failed to determine with a clear majority which law prevails when it comes to shoreline properties, the court noted. Still, the high court ruled in a conflicted decision last year that shorelines plans — not comprehensive plans — take jurisdiction in shoreline areas.
